Best Philadelphia Instagram Spots For Perfect Photos
City Hall
City Hall is quite possibly the most iconic of all the Philadelphia photo spots. This is a must-visit destination for beautiful photos and there are multiple angles you can take here.
Try the walkway on the street in front to include the whole building or try a close-up shot.
Address: 1400 John F Kennedy Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19107, United States
American Philosophical Society Library
How grand is this entrance? This is truly a beautiful Philadelphia Instagram spot; walking down these stairs really is a princess moment!
Sadly, it started raining heavily when I was taking these photos. I probably would have liked the one on the right more if my hair weren’t soaked!
Address: 104 S 5th St, Philadelphia, PA 19106, United States
The Curtis Publishing Company
This is one of the prettiest photo spots in Philadelphia. Arches, columns, ornate windows, beautiful lampposts. What’s not to love about the exterior of The Curtis Publishing Company? I couldn’t resist some photos here.
Address: 170 S Independence Mall W, Philadelphia, PA 19106, United States
The Arches on Filbert Street
These arches with hanging lanterns are a beautiful photo spot in Philadelphia. Luckily, it was really quiet here when we visited so I could get crowd-free photos!
This was my final of the Philadelphia Instagram spots I took photos at, however, I have listed a few more great photography locations below.
Address: 1320 Filbert St, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA (close to City Hall)
Other Philadelphia Instagram and Photo Spots
As I was only in Philadelphia for about 36 hours, I only took two outfits. I now regret not taking an extra and changing halfway through the day! There are a lot more beautiful Instagram spots in Philadelphia that I’m saving for next time! See them below.
Independence Hall
Independence Hall is one of the main tourist attractions in Philadelphia. Also, a super Instagramable photo spot!
Next time I’ll definitely be taking photos here.
Address: 520 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19106, USA
Philadelphia Museum of Art
This building is huge! You would be able to take so many different photos here as there are so many different angles to explore.
Address: 2600 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA 19130
INDEPENDENCE HALL | THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART
Rodin Museum
The Rodin Museum is located close to the Museum of Art.
It was closed when we passed, but the front of the building is lovely and would make the perfect Philadelphia photo spot!
Address: 2151 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA 19130, USA
Logan Square and the Surrounding Buildings
The square has a large, beautiful fountain at the centre. The buildings that surround this square are also really lovely. These include The Academy of Natural Sciences, The Franklin Institute and Central Library.
It was absolutely pouring rain when I passed here, so I didn’t get a good photo – but Google it!
